In this episode I discuss the noise reduction pre-sets I have just released for the Canon EOS R5MK2 as well as my first outing and experience with the camera in the field. Now that the dust has settled on the official announcement of the Canon EOS R1 and the Canon EOS R5MKII, I want to take a few moments to discuss the differences between these two cameras, their key features and who they are intended for.

In this podcast episode, I review the latest volume of Wildlife Photographer of the Year. Now at Volume 33, the Wildlife Photographer of the Year portfolio offers a fantastic way to own the best images of the 2023 competition year and serves as an outstanding reference for wildlife and nature photographers. This book is highly recommended.

In this episode, I discuss a technique you can implement to use your telephoto lens as a spotting scope when out in the field (avoiding the need for either binoculars or a dedicated spotting scope). Additionally, my thoughts on picking up the latest cover of the July / August edition of Wildlife Photographic magazine (along with a feature article on Emperor Penguin photography) and winning three highly coveted Gold awards (and two Silver with Distinctions) at the recent Australian Photographic Prize in Melbourne. This episode also airs on the eve of the exciting Canon EOS R1 Flagship and EOS R5 MKII launch.

In this episode, I discuss and give my further thoughts on the soon-to-be-announced Canon EOS R1 flagship camera and wrap up both of my Africa workshops with thoughts on the photography experience. I also have a short rant about the current state of YouTube inspired by a comment tweeted by my friend Craig: 'You Tube is a Cancer'. And, of course, this is episode 100 of the podcast, so I take a moment to reflect back on the previous 99 episodes and discuss the future of the podcast.

In this episode, I discuss the consumption of Nature vs, appreciation of Nature after a recent, somewhat sour 'tourist' experience during a tour in the Cango caves in South Africa. Apologies in advance, but I somehow managed to screw up the numbering of these podcasts and refer to this episode as number 89 during the recording when it is, in fact, episode 99. That was most probably jet lag.

In this episode, I briefly update my Namibia workshop, which I wrapped up a couple of days ago (an amazing group and a fantastic trip). I then dive into the Canon EOS R1 Development Announcement, the 'incorrect' Adorama specifications that were unfortunately published worldwide, and discuss the actual resolution and some of specifications of the camera from an inside source.

In this episode, I discuss my thoughts on the current state of play with AI generative images, how they relate to the Nature Photography space, and the disingenuous way computer-generated images are used to fool the general public across social media platforms.

In this episode, I discuss (ok, I rant) how the airlines take advantage of their customers, maximising their profits at their customer's expense. I also delve into my upcoming Namibia and Zululand workshops and discuss the camera equipment I am taking with me. Lastly, I also discuss my thoughts on the many rumour websites and YouTube channels (more of which are popping up daily) related to as-yet unreleased or unannounced photographic equipment.

In this episode, I briefly wrap up my recent February Arctic Fox workshop at the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve in the far north of Iceland and give my thoughts on cold weather gloves for Nature photographers. As a specialist Polar photographer and over the years of trying many different pairs, I have some experience with what works and what doesn't when it comes to shooting in cold climates. If you shoot a Canon EOS R3 or 1 1DXMK3 with the touch-sensitive AF button in cold weather, you are going to want to listen to this podcast.

In this episode, I discuss the IT infrastructure and the backup strategies I employ in my photography. Increasingly, I am asked to help specify IT hardware and advise on hardware and backup. Much depends on your individual needs and budget, but this episode should help shed some light on my thoughts and processes regarding this complex issue.

I have just published Episode #88, Season 4, of my Wild Nature Photography Podcast. In this episode, I retrospectively look back at the travel and workshops from 2023 and dive into the 2024 year of travel ahead. During the year 2023, I guided twelve different workshops and expeditions around the world, as well as several private workshops and multiple print and processing workshops. Links to the 2023 Trip Reports are included below. My book pick of the year is Vincent Munier's new masterpiece 'Munier' (Podcast review coming very soon) and my gear pick of the year is the Canon RF 100-500mm lens. Also included is the news of an exciting new ambassadorship appointment with Mr. Jan Gear (I will have more to say on that topic in a future blog post). Lastly, my favourite photographs from 2023 can be seen online HERE.

In my Wild Nature Photography Podcast's latest season (season 4) for 2024, I wrap up my just completed January Pallas Cat expedition to Mongolia's eastern Steppe region in Winter. I will have a full written trip report on this expedition in the next few days, along with some photographs, but I wanted to get my initial thoughts down in a podcast while they are still fresh in my mind (2023 Trip Report). I will be returning again to the far east of Mongolia to lead a workshop to photograph these amazing cats in January of 2025. The expedition will run from January 4th to January 10th 2025, and is for those photographers looking to get out into the wilderness to photograph these incredible felines. Drop me an email if you would like more information.

In this podcast episode, I wrap up my 2023 Antarctica expedition with some initial thoughts on this incredible trip (full trip report coming soon), give my thoughts on a short scouting trip to Easter Island, and review the 2023 Podcast year. Although I did not squeeze in as many Podcasts as I would have liked in 2023, I managed to get a new episode out almost every two weeks with an average of 2.08 (much better than I first thought). The podcast was downloaded across a total of 67 countries over the course of the year, with the USA topping the charts for the most downloads. The most downloaded episode was the Ethical Use of Drones in Wildlife Photography, which was published on the 11th of July, 2023. Of course, I will be endeavouring to improve on those statistics in 2024 with more episodes with even higher quality content. In this episode, I also cover the recently published January 2024 edition of the UK's EOS magazine, which featured my photography on the front cover, as well as an extended feature on my Polar photography. Also recently published was a second feature on my photography in Food and Travel magazine.

I have just published episode #85 of my Wild Nature Photography Podcast. In this episode, I discuss what equipment I am taking with me to Antarctica next week, as well as my packing strategy and decision not to purchase Canon's new RF10-20mm Lens. This will probably be the last podcast before I depart for Antarctica next week - although I will do my best to get in my review of either Volume 8 of Bird Photographer of the Year or Vincent Munier's new retrospective 'Munier'.
